Latest article, more of the same; she interviewed the mayor supposedly, said he was also the postmaster. Not. She doesn't even know who she interviewed. not so well researched — while Fuzzy Bob does exist, the reporter was jived —

In order of authority. 1. It started in the 70s or maybe late 80s during the Cold War. Many people reportedly planned to head for the hills and live off the land should the Big One drop, or should the commies invade a la "Red Dawn." Residents of Ward already live in the hills and didn't like the idea of claim jumping cityslickers coming to use up their water/game/forage. Decrepit cars and other junkyard refuse were moved to side of the road to make quick roadblocks during calamaty should the Huddled Masses of Front Rangers try to escape to their vacation cabins. 2. This story is more recent. Wealthy Boulderites started buying up some property around Ward. Locals didn't like what that was doing to their property values -- they *like* their trashy houses. Junk kept on side of roads to keep property values depressed and hopefully keep the riff raff away. Two stories I’ve heard. In order of authority.
